Our House is on Fire
The profoundly moving story of how love, courage and determination brought Greta Thunberg's family back from the brink
This is the story of a happy family whose life suddenly fell apart, never to be the same again. Of two devoted parents plunged into a waking nightmare as their eleven-year-old daughter Greta stopped speaking and eating, and her younger sister struggled to cope.
They desperately searched for answers, and began to see how their children's suffering reached far beyond medical diagnoses. This crisis was not theirs alone: they were burned-out people on a burned-out planet.
And so they decided to act.
Our House is on Fire shows how, amid forces that tried to silence them, one family found ways to strengthen, heal, and gain courage from the love they had for each other - and for the living world. It is a parable of hope and determination in an emergency that affects us all.

Into the Deep - Mély víz (Mélyvíz 1.)
"Maradj fiatal! Élj veszélyesen! Szeress szenvedéllyel!
Charley Redford csak egy hétköznapi lány volt, amíg Jake Caplin meg nem jelent otthonában, az indianai kisvárosban, és meg nem győzte róla, hogy rendkívüli teremtés. Jake szinte már az első napon a mélyvízbe dobta Charley-t, és megígérte a lánynak, hogy kitart mellette. Ám később tragikus baleset árnyékolta be Jake életét, és a fiú gyorsan kievickélt a partra, magára hagyva Charley-t.
Négy év telt el azóta, és a lány végre úgy érzi, sikerült továbblépnie. Aztán Edinburghba utazik, hogy ott folytassa tanulmányait, és egy partin merő véletlenségből éppen Jake Caplinbe meg az új barátnőjébe botlik. A jó útra tért rosszfiú Charley bocsánatáért esedezik, aki ezek után egyre több időt tölt egykori szerelmével. Charley fegyverszünetet köt, és végül ráébred: egyre szorosabb barátság fűzi a fiúhoz.
Ahogy ők ketten közelebb kerülnek egymáshoz, újra fellángol közöttük a régi szenvedély, ami komoly fenyegetést jelent az életükre és a kapcsolataikra. Amikor a féltékenység és a vágy felüti pusztító fejét, Charley és Jake még maguknak is nehezen ismerik be, mit jelentenek egymás számára.
De ha sikerül is úrrá lenniük a helyzeten, semmi sem garantálja, hogy Charley még egyszer hagyja magát visszarángatni a mélyvízbe."

Emily Dickinson, who famously wrote "Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul," is brought to life in this moving story.

Look Again
For fans of Thinking, Fast and Slow and The Power of Habit, a groundbreaking new study of how disrupting our well-worn routines, both good and bad, can rejuvenate our days and reset our brains to allow us to live happier and more fulfilling lives.
Have you ever noticed that what is thrilling on Monday tends to become boring on Friday? Even exciting relationships, stimulating jobs, and breathtaking works of art lose their sparkle after a while. People stop noticing what is most wonderful in their own lives. They also stop noticing what is terrible.
They get used to dirty air. They stay in abusive relationships. People grow to accept authoritarianism and take foolish risks.
They become unconcerned by their own misconduct, blind to inequality, and are more liable to believe misinformation than ever before.
But what if we could find a way to see everything anew? What if you could regain sensitivity, not only to the great things in your life, but also to the terrible things you stopped noticing and so don't try to change?
Atlas of Improbable Places
It is perhaps the eighth wonder of our world that despite modern mapping and satellite photography our planet continues to surprise us.
Travis Elborough goes in search of the obscure and bizarre, the beautiful and estranged. From the church tower of San Juan Parangaricutiro - that miraculously stands as the sole survivor of a town sunk by lava - to the underground realms of Berlin and Beijing dug for refuge and espionage, these maps reveal incredible stories of hidden lairs, forgotten cities and improbable wonders.
With beautiful maps and stunning photography, Atlas of Improbable Places is a fascinating voyage to the world's most unusual destinations. These curious locations are not just extraordinary sights, but reflections on our own relationship with the world around us.

Válogatott ifjak 1: The Young Elites - Az ifjú kiválasztottak
Van ki gyűlöl minket, akasztófára való zsiványként gondol ránk.
Van ki retteg tőlünk, démonnak tart, máglyára vetne mindannyiunkat.
Van ki bálványoz minket, az istenek gyermekeinek vél.
De egy sincs, ki ne hallott volna rólunk.
Elegem van belőle, hogy kihasználnak, bántanak, aztán félrelöknek.
Adelina Amouteru túlélte a vérlázat. Durvalelkű apja szerint ő egy malfetto, irtóztató, utálatos teremtmény, aki szégyent hoz a családjukra, és a boldogulásuk útjában áll. De a pletykák szerint a láz túlélői közül néhányan nem csak forradásokkal lettek gazdagabbak - úgy tartják, néhányan rejtélyes hatalomra tettek szert, és bár a kilétük titokban maradt, úgy kezdték emlegetni őket, hogy a kiválasztott ifjak.
Teren Santoro a királynak dolgozik. Az Inkvizíció fejeként az ő feladata felkutatni a kiválasztott ifjakat, hogy elpusztítsák őket, mielőtt még ők pusztítják el az országot. Veszélyesnek és bosszúszomjasnak tartja őket, de lehet, hogy a legsötétebb titkot maga Teren rejtegeti.
Enzo Valenciano a Tőr Társaságának vezetője. A kiválasztott ifjaknak ez a titkos társasága kutat a hozzájuk hasonlók után, hogy előbb találjon rájuk, mint az Inkvizíció. De Adelina személyében a Tőrök olyasvalakire bukkannak, akinek hatalmához hasonlót még nem láttak.
Adelina hinni akar benne, hogy Enzo az ő oldalán áll, és Teren az igazi ellenség. Hármójuk sorsa szorosan összefonódik, és noha eltérő célokért küzdenek, mindhármuk harca nagyon is személyes. Egy dologban viszont mindannyian egyetértenek: Adelina olyan képességekkel rendelkezik, amik nem valók erre a világra. A szívében bosszúra szomjazik a sötétség. És ég benne a vágy, hogy elpusztítson mindenkit, aki az útjába áll.

The Lord of the Rings - Box Set
Three-volume paperback boxed set of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic masterpiece, packaged in the classic black covers designed by Tolkien himself. Sauron, the Dark Lord, has gathered to him all the Rings of Power -- the means by which he intends to rule Middle-earth. All he lacks in his plans for dominion is the One Ring -- the ring that rules them all -- which has fallen into the hands of the hobbit, Bilbo Baggins. In a sleepy village in the Shire, young Frodo Baggins finds himself faced with an immense task, as his elderly cousin Bilbo entrusts the Ring to his care. Frodo must leave his home and make a perilous journey across Middle-earth to the Cracks of Doom, there to destroy the Ring and foil the Dark Lord in his evil purpose. Since it was first published in 1954, 'The Lord of the Rings' has been a book people have treasured. Steeped in unrivalled magic and otherworldliness, its sweeping fantasy has touched the hearts of young and old alike.

A Secret Vice: Tolkien On Invented Languages
First ever critical study of Tolkien's little-known essay, which reveals how language invention shaped the creation of Middle-earth and beyond, to George R R Martin's Game of Thrones.
J.R.R. Tolkien's linguistic invention was a fundamental part of his artistic output, to the extent that later on in life he attributed the existence of his mythology to the desire to give his languages a home and peoples to speak them. As Tolkien puts it in 'A Secret Vice', 'the making of language and mythology are related functions''.
In the 1930s, Tolkien composed and delivered two lectures, in which he explored these two key elements of his sub-creative methodology. The second of these, the seminal Andrew Lang Lecture for 1938-9, 'On Fairy-Stories', which he delivered at the University of St Andrews in Scotland, is well known. But many years before, in 1931, Tolkien gave a talk to a literary society entitled 'A Hobby for the Home', where he unveiled for the first time to a listening public the art that he had both himself encountered and been involved with since his earliest childhood: 'the construction of imaginary languages in full or outline for amusement'.
This talk would be edited by Christopher Tolkien for inclusion as 'A Secret Vice' in The Monsters and the Critics and Other Essays and serves as the principal exposition of Tolkien's art of inventing languages. This new critical edition, which includes previously unpublished notes and drafts by Tolkien connected with the essay, including his 'Essay on Phonetic Symbolism', goes some way towards re-opening the debate on the importance of linguistic invention in Tolkien's mythology and the role of imaginary languages in fantasy literature.

Depeche Mode - Delta Machine: The 12 Singles 6EP
Depeche Mode je hudobná skupina, ktorá bola v roku 1980 založená v Basildone v Anglicku. Skupinu dnes tvorí: Dave Gahan (spev a spolautorstvo skladieb)a Martin Gore (klávesy, gitara, spev a hlavný autor skladieb). Ich hudobný štýl by sa dal najlepšie charakterizovať ako synth rock, alebo taktiež synthpop (používanie umelých zvukov, vytváraných syntetizátormi a samplermi). Stali sa jednou z najvytrvalejších a najúspešnejších hudobných skupín, ktoré sa objavili počas New Wave a New Romantic éry.Vďaka svojej inovatívnej tvorbe, nahrávacím technikám a popularizácii vzorkovania (angl. sampling), ovplyvnili mnoho súčasných hudobníkov. Ich album Violator z roku 1990 je považovaný za klenot elektronickej hudby. Hoci sú významní pre modernú techno scénu, zostávajú naďalej pri alternatívnej hudbe. Až 54 skladieb skupiny Depeche Mode sa dostalo do rebríčka UK Singles Chart a 17 ich albumov bolo britských rebríčkoch umiestnených do Top 10. Skupina Depeche Mode má na celom svete predaných viac než sto miliónov hudobných nosičov.Časopis Q zaradili Depeche Mode do svojho zoznamu „50 kapiel, ktoré zmenili svet!“Televízia VH1 ich dala na 98. miesto svojho zoznamu „Stovky najväčších umelcov všetkých čias“. V decembri 2016 dal magazín Billboard skupinu Depeche Mode na desiate miesto zoznamu najlepších umelcov klubovej tanečnej hudobnej scény. Skupina Depeche Mode bola nominovaná do Rock and Roll Hall of Fame v rokoch 2017 a 2018 a uvedená do nej bola v roku 2020.
